[Discraft] NUKE!!!

[Johnson]

Nuke is the only distance driver that I can throw; no clue why. My longest disc (at only 350) and I have no business throwing it, so it stays out of the bag.

For me, it flies like I want a Valk to.

I would keep it in the bag man, on a long wide open hole it's gonna give you that extra distance and it's pretty accurate to boot. And heck, who doesn't like to bomb a fast disc from time to time?

The pro wraith I usually have around is like 15 feet shorter, and I don't feel as bad for carrying it.

I found my Nuke in the woods one day without a name on it and I have loved it ever since. It flies as far as any disc I have and it seems to hold it's line for a long time before fading off. It's great for long tight drives

Who throws a Nuke?? I need some details before I purchase one... I wanna know what disc its comperable to and if it is worth the cash... I like to usually throw something less stable like a Valk or Beast, someone let me know if it would be a good fit please...

Well Barsby was launching his Z Nuke about 500' at Otter Open with enough accuracy that it might as well have been a midrange...

It'll be more overstable than your Valk or Beast but if you're really throwing 400' then you would probably get good use out of it.

What if I can only get a Katana out to 300' with no wind? I can control a Katana pretty well but I really don't throw it far. My TL is easier to throw (obviously) and goes about 250-270'.

I wouldn't mind trying a Nuke but I know everyone will tell me not to because of my lack of distance.

Throw what you want! I never understood the disc down crap! If you can throw a fast disc pretty far and control it, why would you not?

I can throw a Nuke over a mountain…

Throw what you like! Just because DGCR is heavy into discing down doesn't mean you can't throw high speed stuff.. If it feels good to you, go with it:thmbup: Distance isn't everything (granted it may help sometimes), accuracy is really the name of the game

I have a FR ESP and a regular ESP and both are fantastic! Out of the high speed stuff I've thrown, the Nuke is one of the most consistant and controlable

I agree throw what you want everyone throws different. I like my nuke good distance easy to throw ! also like latt.64 havoc ,not as fast as they say at speed 13,but very nice flight. Ithrow both in lighter weights ,good if you have less power.

Get an X-Nuke. Mine is starting to beat in to be very Katana like, but without the turn-and-burn issues that the Katana will spring on you out of nowhere.

 

[hendersondayton]

Will give it a whirl.

 

[JTacoma03]

some on here get overzealous of telling others to disc down just for the pure hell of it. If you want to throw high speed drivers and you only throw ~300', then do it.

Discing down should only be done if you're serious and want to work on your game over the course of a year or two to get it to another level. Lots of people don't understand this.

 

[The dude on the bike]

Buy one. I like the esp, I have a 167 esp (blue) that ismore stable than my glow z and my heavier esp's. I have to tell you though I found a red 165 r-pro boss that out flies them all and is pretty reliable for an R-pro boss, the trick is to never ever hit a tree with it. Katana's are what I throw on long holes through trees 'cuz I don't care if I ruin those things.

 

[AikoAdam]

I have a first run Z and an ESP sitting on the shelf because I am teh no0b. They shooore do look purty tho.

 

[craftsman]

Lol... I have tons of goodies that I'm still waiting to throw til I get good!

I would love to see a beast fly straight on a 400' drive. Those things are flip discs.
